Epig. 7. In Bunnam.

A shaue-beard Barber Bunna chanc'd to meete,
As she was going all along the streete;
The Barber sweares hee's glad they met so right,
She should barb him, or he barb her that night:
What was the reason of this their debate?
Or what's the cause why Barbers Bunna hate?
Bunna, she barbs too cheap, and barbs by 'th score
And whom she barbes they ne're neede barbing more.
